Destination for South Indian buffet and dosas with broad veg/non-veg options and great value, but expect occasional service delays and uneven buffet quality at off-peak times.
The verdict
Southern Spice delivers solid neighborhood dining with authentic South Indian flavors and standout Indo-Chinese dishes paired with warm, engaged service. However, inconsistent buffet replenishment and occasional temperature lapses prevent higher performance, while the casual strip-mall setting lacks destination appeal. Strong value and loyal following make it a reliable choice for families seeking regional comfort food.
One caveat: Buffet items sometimes reported cold or understocked during off-peak hours
